"Is everyone alright? Betty?" a voice called out from what used to be a small ship. Climbing out of the rubble was a brown skinned young man with a dark brown afro wearing a yellow shirt and black pants. The shirt was open enough to expose a rectangular, orange gem on his chest. Not only that, but he also had a lighter patch of skin around his eye.

"I'm fine!" another voiced responded. The owner of said voice belonged to a large, pale woman with long, sandy blonde hair that was separated in braids, allowing a light blue gem on the back of her head to be shown. She wore a medium blue shirt and lighter blue shorts. "What about the others?"

"Diana? Eyeball?" the man yelled.

"We're right here, Harry." the former replied, a slightly tanned and skinny woman with a backless blue dress revealing that she also had a blue gem on her back, climbed out of the rubble with the latter, a Ruby with her gem on her eye. "Some field trip this turned out to be."

"I don't even remember what happened." Betty said, wiping sweat with from her forehead. "Did the engine blow out? Did we get hit with something?"

"Who knows." Diana answered, her short brown hair all messed up. She sat down on the sand, and then realized something. "Wait, where's Mara?"

"Mara?" Betty called out.

"I'm here!" a quiet voice cried out, just enough for the rest to hear. A pale hand appeared among the rubble before pushing away a flat piece of metal. Out came a frail woman, paler than Betty, with light blonde hair in a now messy bun. She wore a pink shirt that exposed her midriff, where a smooth, pale pink gem appeared on her navel. "I think I'm fine."

"Well, this is not what I had anticipated at all." Eyeball spoke up.

"You mean to tell me that this crash landing into an unknown moon wasn't part of the fun and exciting field trip?" Harry asked sarcastically.

"Harold, can you please not be a wise guy for five minutes?" Betty interrupted with an annoyed expression.

"I told you not to call me Harold!"

"Quiet!" Eyeball yelled. "First things first, where are we?"

"I think we're on a beach." Diana pointed out. It was true, they were on a quiet beach with many palm trees and fine, white sand.

"At least it's not cold." Mara commented. "I don't like the cold."

"Is the communication device on the ship still active?" Betty asked.

"I don't think so, the ship got pretty totalled." Harry told them.

"Just great." Eyeball muttered.

"Wait, this is a moon, right?" Diana said. "So wouldn't there be a Diamond Base on it?"

"You're right. Clever thinking, Diana." Eyeball complimented.

"So we just have to find it." Betty added.

"I guess it's off to the Diamond Base, then. Come on, let's go."
